Summary: Cannot add Content-Transfer-Encoding header with
extra_headers statement
Product: Exim
Version: 4.62
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: bug
Priority: medium
Component: Filters
AssignedTo: ph10@hermes.cam.ac.uk
ReportedBy: mh+exim-bugzilla@zugschlus.de
QAContact: exim-dev@exim.org


Hi,

In a personal filter, I have a mail statement with an extra_headers option
allowing the use of German Umlauts:

extra_headers "Mime-Version: 1.0\nContent-Type: text/plain;
charset=iso-8859-1\nContent-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit"

This is rejected with the error message:
Filter error: \n not followed by space or valid header name in "Mime-Version:
1.0\nContent-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1\nContent-Transfer-Encoding:
8bit" in mail command

When I change Content-Transfer-Encoding to Content-TransferEncoding, omitting
the second dash, debugging shows that these headers would indeed be added.

This looks to me like exim doesn't consider a Header name with two dashes
valid. Am I doing something wrong?

Greetings
Marc
